Before reading this please understand that this is not a judgement of how anyone else feels, deals with, or sees things, we are all different and there is no right or wrong. Also. I love FB for allowing us to share things between friends and family. However, when dealing with something as personally devastating as loosing a friend or loved one, I dont grieve publicly. I might put it out there and the support really does help. The problems, for me, are that I cant comfortably work through that type of personal pain and spiritual experience on a public platform. My Mom helped me understand this without even knowing it. She doesnt have a FB, doesnt really deal much with computers. She was very upset recently when she heard about the illness and later loss of a loved one second hand through the online grapevine. No phone call, no voice she said. FB is great but it can not, or should not in my opinion, replace personal interaction. Sometimes we simply need a hug, to see a face, touch someone, hear a voice, some things should be lived in the flesh more than online. So if Im quiet during those situations, please, dont think I dont care, sometimes I just cant put my thoughts into text.
